Three Bed Niton Beach Stay

Approached via a long driveway from the quaint village of Niton Undercliff on the south coast of the island, this cottage is located on one side of a large courtyard, detached from the main house. This peaceful property, built of Island stone, dates back to the 1800’s and is surrounded by several acres of private garden, with lush lawns rolling down towards the sea, offering spectacular views. This area is a haven for keen walkers, with a short walk to the coastal path which extends to The Needles. It's great for spotting wildlife as there's an abundance on this part of the island. There are wonderful welcoming pubs in Niton which serve home cooked meals. A short car drive away is the sandy beach of Ventnor with a variety of eateries and a homemade ice cream shop. Many smaller beaches and coves including Castlehaven with a popular seasonal beach cafe and Reeth Bay are nearby.

This cottage has been furnished with care and with sympathy to it’s history throughout, offering an aesthetic that cleverly fuses countryside and coastal styles. Many original features have been retained, including the flagstone floor in the hall, which you'll notice as you step into the house. There's a large lounge with windows overlooking the courtyard, a Smart TV and a warming wood burner – a perfect spot to unwind after a busy day exploring. The open-plan kitchen/diner is equipped with an electric cooker, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and coffee machine. The Aga is for use in the colder winter months only. There's also a large dining table with ample space for the whole party. It has three charming bedrooms for a good night's sleep, plus there's a shower room with a shower, and a separate WC.

Step out onto the terrace from the main bedroom and enjoy the views across the courtyard to the gardens and sea. Guests can also sit out in the front courtyard for a BBQ, meals al-fresco and drinks. Entrance to the neighbouring property The Wing – Puckaster House is via the same courtyard. Follow a path through the gorgeous larger gardens of the main house to secluded spots, including a place where children can run around and play games. (Please be aware that there are two ponds in the gardens, so children need close supervision). Off-road parking is available for two cars.
